بخش ۱۵۱ - قال الله تعالی یا حسرتی علی ما فرطت فی جنب الله / Section 151 - Allah the Exalted Said: 'O, my regret over what I neglected in regard to Allah'

Original content

حسرت از جان او برآرد دود
وان زمان حسرتش ندارد سود

بس که ریزد ز دیده اشک ندم
غرق گردد ز فرق تا به قدم

و آب چشمش شود در آن شیون
آتشش را به خاصیت روغن

کاش این گریه پیش ازین کردی
غم این کار پیش ازین خوردی

دادی از جویبار دیده نمی
شستی از نامه سیه رقمی

نم چه سود این زمان که کشت امل
خشک گشت از تف سموم اجل

گریه روزی که بود فایده مند
از جهالت به خنده شد خرسند

چون زمان نشاط و خنده رسید
آبش از چشم و خون ز دل بچکید

حق چو فلیضحکوا قلیلا گفت
او ز بس خنده همچو غنچه شکفت

جوی چشمش شد ترشح جو
هرگز از چشمه سار فلیبکوا

لاجرم روز ضحک و استبشار
خون فشاند ز دیده خونبار

همه ضاحک ز عیش و مستبشر
او ز رنج و عنا عبوس و کدر

English translation

Regret brings forth smoke from his soul, And at that time his regret yields no benefit. He sheds so many tears of repentance from his eyes That he becomes drowned from head to toe. And in that lamentation, the water of his eyes Acts, by its nature, as oil to his fire. Would that he had wept before this, And grieved over this matter before this, And given a bit of moisture from the stream of his eyes To wash away a black mark from his record of deeds. Of what use is moisture now when the field of hope Has withered from the scorching heat of the poison-wind of death? On the day when weeping would have been beneficial, He was content with laughter out of ignorance. When the time of joy and laughter arrived, Water dripped from his eyes and blood from his heart. When the Truth said, 'So let them laugh a little,' He bloomed like a bud from laughing too much. The stream of his eyes never sought moisture From the spring of 'and weep much.' Consequently, on the day of laughter and good tidings, He pours blood from his blood-shedding eyes. While everyone is laughing and joyful in their pleasant life, He is frowning and sorrowful from pain and affliction.
